A NEW DEPARTMENT.

Messrs. o. Torrison & Co. have decided
to go into the merchant tailoring business
In connection with their other trade, and
for this purpose have fitted up suitable
apartments on the upper floor of their
store. The new department will be I'M
der the supervision of Mr.. j. G. Filholm,
long known as one of the best and most
conscientio S tailors in the city, He will
be assisted by a large force of experien-
ced workmen and the firm is therefore in
condition to fill orders for custom tailor
ing with promptness and in satisfactory
manner. The immense stock of cloth and
trimmings which has for years been a
prominent feature of the business Of O.
Torrison & Co., will of course be available.
Any one in need of clothing Of any quail
ity can depend upon being promptly
served and with the most fashionable
goods made up In the latest styles under
the supervision of a gentleman whose
name is synonymous with honesty and
capabiiity. A special feature of the new
branch of business will be the making of
fine dress suits.

II is again reported that GOODNESS
has sprung up between Edwin Booth and
Lawrence Barrett, owing to the latter's
being forced into a subordinate position.
It would not be natural for a great actor
like Barrett not to feel reluctant to as
sumo a subordinate character But it is
also true that the character Booth plays
becomes the leading one by his persona
ton. And this notwithstanding Barrett s
voice of wonderful sweetness and his elo-
cutionary power.
Their manager Indignantly denies that
there is any GOODNESS between the two
stars. The combination is certainly of
great benefit to Booth who is no business
man. Barrett is a man of affairs and
through him Booth will probably make
more money this season than he is now
worth. Barrett comedies Booths super
iority as an actor, and it is very likely
plays second as matter of choice sug-
gested largely by business considerations.
jealousy or none, it is doubtful whether
such rare combination in the theatrical
field will soon again be vouchsafed the
people.

UNITED STATES SENATOR G. K. DAVIS
of Minnesota, is one of the brightest men
IN the country. His wife earned her own
living before he married her by working
as dressmaker. The snobs of St. Paul
have never been able to treat her as a So
cial equal because she was at one time a
dressmaker. In arranging for the recep-
ton of President and Mrs. Clevevand,
invitations were sent out to a select few
to call upon the President and his wife
in advance of the crowd. Mrs. Davis
was one of those invited. This stirred
the blue blood of those who never work
ed for a living and they refused to be
present if Mrs. Davis was So the scheme
was abandoned. Such snobbery as this
reflects no credit on ST. Paul.

PRIZE DRAWING.

P. NJ. Peters, the well known South
Side boot and shoe dealer, has determin-
ed upon a novel plan of giving away
about $500 worth of goods: For each
$500 worth of goods purchased OF him
for cash he will give ticket which will
entitle the holder to participate In draw
ing for one of thirty-two prizes, ranging
in value from one to twenty dollars, pay
able in any goods of the winners selection
from his stock. Each ticket-holder who
fails to draw one of the thirty-two prizes,
will be entitled to 10 cents in trade. The
drawing will take place in January next.
Mr.. Peters stock of boots, shoes, slippers,
ETC., was never so large and complete as
at the present time and the winners of
the prizes may depend upon having one
of the finest assortments in the city to
select from, while the prices will be. as
they always are at this establishment,
the lowest.

HERsoH SMALLEY was in Milwaukee al
the same time Cleveland was there. The
coming at the same time was not pre-,
meditated by either. Hersch was little
anxious to attend the banquet but In the
line of clothing was limited to one OF
these stubby coats which are comprom-
Ise between an overcoat and vest,-
something like a pea-jacket. OF course
he had other clothes too, but hardly worth
extended description. He called upon a
tailor to have claw hammer attachment
put upon the pea jacket so that he might
appear en- regle and grace the banquet
with his presence. In the tailor's haste the
appendage was put on the front and look
ed too much like ventral fin to be deem
ed proper for dress party. Hersch took
quiet lunch, practiced for while spell
ing his name, restored his coat to its bob
tail condition and came home to have a
banquet with the little ones in whose
hearts he is President.

THERE seems to be some difficulty

THERE seems to be some difficulty in
locating the Snub at Madison. The
great question is, Was Fairchild the
Snubber or the Snubee? 1t is possible
that Fairchild learning that Omnipo-
tence overruled his motion on the
palsy issue, would be reminded up
on gazing at Cleveland's robust di-
mansions, noting the vigorous hand
shaking he was capable of enduring,
perceiving the linguistic readiness of the
member which was to be stilled, and
painfully recognizing the cerebral activ-
ity implied in gathering such mass of
statistical information, that the prayers
of the wicked availeth not" Clearly the
Snub in this case came from the "Promis-
ed Land where many mansions be-" In
the interests of harmony Cleveland would
be justified in making the rounds with a
limp arm a brain which lost its cunning
and a tongue which refused to do its
office Then Fairchild could look upon
his work and pronounce it good. But to
expect the commandments of the
Grand Army of the Republic to gaze upon
a man whose presence is reminder of
an order unexecuted, prayer unanswer-
ed! All, that's expecting too much.

AN attempt was made at the Knights
of Labor convention at Minneapolis to
pass a resolution pledging the society to
attempt to secure a communication of SEN
tence for the Chicago anarchists. Pow
derby took the floor and delivered most
impassinned speech against the resolu-
ton. He is most wise counselor in this
matter. Nothing has done more to bring
thelaborers' cause into disrepute than the
self-assumed leadership of the anarchists.
The resolution was badly defeated and it
is well for the labor organization that it
was.

GENERAL MASTER WORKMAN POWDER
LY does not readily take back statements
which he made deliberately. He has
been severely criticised because of his
advocacy of temperance among laborers.
But in his address he iterates the state
ments and asks pointedly whether it is
not better to educate children to be tenn
perate than to be drunkards, and wheth-
er man is doing justice to his family
when he brings into his home that which
damns the head of the family. Powderly' s
work will bear good fruit among laborers
many of whom look upon being temper
ate as being a crime.

THE laymen at the Methodist confer
ence held at Appleton last week discuss
ed the liquor question and came TO the
conclusion that the traffic should be pro-
hibited as efforts to regulate it have been
failure. There is where a mistake is
made. Prohibition is a failure. The
attempt to regulate the traffic even with
the opposition of prohibitionists at one
extreme and democrats at the other, the
success has been satisfactory to every one
except those who regard the chief object
of life to procure the enactment of pro-
hibitory laws, and those who think the
only legislation the times demand is
something to make whiskey more plenti-

THERE is no question receiving more
attention now in leading public maya
zines than the restriction of immigration.
| The immigration is at the rate of half a
million per year and the process OF asslm-
ilation has been wholly checked. The
/ mere formality of becoming naturallzed
is gone through with as in the past, but
this no longer means willingness to &C
cept American ideas. Some years ago
the first thing foreigner addressed him
self to, and with azsiduity, was to master
the English language. This is no longer
deemed necessary, and in many places in
the United States English is foreign
language, not even being recognized in
the public schools.
It is quite evident that restricting i'm
migration will not remedy the colonlzlng
process now going on in several parts of
the United States. The trouble is, the
evil seeds have been sown and largely by
demagogues in state legislatures, who in
the hope OF reaping some little personal
political advantage, make concessions
which are recognition of nationality
distinct from American citizenship. Here
is the origin of the evil and not the influx
of immigrants. They quickly adapt
themselves to circumstances; they read
lily conform to American customs and
learn the language Of the land if they
deem it necessary. But the demagogues
who are invested with "httle brief au-
thority," tell them they are under no
necessity to change their habits or to
master another language. Conditions
here Will be changed to suit them. These
things are said in language most lauda-
tory of the people addressed and not in
frequently in derogation of those who are
American in custom and belief
The evil complained of cannot be rem
edied by restricting immigration. In
deed in the present state of unAmerican-
lied sentiment the enforcement Of such a
law would cause rebellion. The dema-
gogues in the legislature must be watch
ed and suppressed so thoroughly that
demagogy viii become unpopular. Then
legislators will act for the public good or
at least viii not sacrifice public interests
to court the favor of any class.

THE Chicago Tribune's Milwaukee ot

THE Chicago Tribune's Milwaukee cor
respondent says Cleveland's visit to a
Milwaukee brewery and holding recep-
ton at beer garden and quaffing the
foaming lager were all political moves
designed to capture the German votes of
Wisconsin. The correspondent must
think it very easy matter to capture SO
large vote. The probability is that
Cleveland drank beer because he liked
it. Incidently, it may do him good in a
political way in Milwaukee, and if The
Tribune chooses to make it an issue the
democrats are not only willing but anx-
ious it should be done. That correspon-
dent is by no means shrewd and if The
Tribune is really and truly an anti
Cleveland paper, it should give more ex-
plicit instructions to its reporters or hire
news editor who has some gumption.

shallow grave over which old logs were
thrown and in the grave the bodies of

FAIRCHILD was In Madison during the
presidents visit in that city but studi-
ously refrained from aiding In extending
a welcome to the chief executive Of the
nation. Fairchild did this either because
he wished to give the members of the e..
A. R. cue as to the manner in which
they should treat the president, or he
felt ashamed of his palsy utterances and
had the manly pride, which Foraker lack
ed, of keeping aloof from the entire pro-
ceeding.
If Fairchild's motive was that first
mentioned, he is lacking in real patriot
ism. The people will not approve of
Fairchild's studied disrespect and lofty
assumption of superiority because of
cheap notoriety gained through the bat
tie flag incident. The people,. without
regard to party, are unanimous in look
ing upon the Office OF chief executive as
the highest In the gift of the people, and
deem the incumbent deserving the re-
spect of all good citizens. The ex-com-
manoer-in-chief of the G. A. r. can hard
ly afford to set an example Of marked
disrespect for the nations head.
